Sleepless Nights

MEMPHIS MAY FIRE · Unconditional 2014 · Track 03 of 11

Music: Kellen McGregor, Memphis May Fire · Lyrics: Matty Mullins

I stare deep down into the eyes of my nightmares As they come to life I feel my heart beat right out of my chest and I think I might be losing the fight (I might be losing it)

I live inside my poisoned mind It leaves me paralyzed (it leaves me paralyzed) My visions blurred My words are slurred I think I might, might die tonight

This shadow follows me It always keeps me on the edge I know that I would never jump So why cant I step back from the ledge? Am I losing control?

You take me to the darkest places I have ever been I think I feel it coming back again

Why am I terrified of everything I used to love Save me from myself I don't want to hate who I've become Inhale, exhale Why is it so hard to breathe Inhale exhale Why isn't this working?! If I live to see the other side of this I swear I'll never take for granted any happiness I never knew what i had until it was gone How long will this go on?

Why am I terrified of everything I used to love Save me from myself I don't want to hate who I've become Tell me that tomorrow when I wake up I'll be fine I just want to be myself again I want to know that I'm alive

Tell me is there something that I'm learning from this? I try my best to make the most of it Maybe i just need to see the bigger picture Show me how it ends

If I have to feel this forever, I'd rather feel nothing at all.

[Spoken:] Bring me back to life I just can't take another sleepless night Bring me back to life Give me the clarity to see the light

I know that you can take this away So I'm praying that today is the day Oh, I pray that today is the day Bring me back to life

Why am I terrified of everything I used to love Save me from myself I don't want to hate who I've become Tell me that tomorrow when I wake up I'll be fine I just want to be myself again I want to know that I'm alive

Please give me peace Give me joy Give me sanity, Give me hope Give me love Give me truth.
